The Museum für Naturkunde Berlin and the Humboldt University will host the second International conference on Southeast Asian Gateway Evolution (SAGE 2013).

This meeting focuses on the origin, diversification, and conservation of Southeast Asia's megadiverse fauna and flora against the background of the region's complex geology and climate history. We aim to attract climatologists, biogeographers, palaeontologists & geologists to this multidisciplinary meeting and look forward to welcoming you in Berlin in March 2013.
